Together with birds project

   Ural is known for long, cold  and frosty winters. It's a hard time for our small friends - animals and birds. When there was launched An International  Feed a bird action 
(coordinator Svetlana Yakubovskaya, Belarus) school 16, Miass students joined it without any doubt.  This lovely bird was   chosen as  a logo for their activity .       
     
    Students of different grades worked at this project-action as one team. Handicraft teacher Alexander Rudko taught his students to make feeders. Elementary school students created poems and booklets,  drew pictures of wintering birds and made canteens for their feathering friends. Have a look at this slide show and you will see how enthusiastic the students were.

Denis Zadorogin  ( 3B grade) is sharing his concern about wintering birds in Ural region :

      "Winter is a difficult time for those birds which don’t fly away to warm countries. Wintering birds suffer from cold and hunger. It’s difficult for them to find some food under the thick layer of snow. I think we must help our feathering friends. I made a feeder and hang it on the birch tree in my yard. I put  on there some seeds, bread  crump and millet. Every morning different birds flew up  to my feeder – sparrows and  tomtits.  Once I saw a beautiful  bullfinch.

   We must care for wintering birds and in summer time they will thank us with their singing and catching  insects in our gardens."

 Some students made poems .  :)))))


«Воробей, мой воробьишка, Прилетай ко мне скорей, Покормлю тебя до сыта, Будешь сытый воробей »





... and created fascinating feeding palaces for their feathering friends.
How do you find these creations?






Students also created power point presentations  within  the   International Feed the birds action.
